. I dont want to go into Denver for the playoffs
Vontae Davis is the only logical move now.
last year TJ Ward aimed straight at his surgically repaired knee... on the replay, hes like 10-15 yards back and his eyes are locked on Gronk's knee the entire run up to him.. luckily Gronk has been changing the way he runs in the open field and is protecting himself, because Ward nearly ended his season again the same way he did the year before
The Seahawks are the only team that I've seen actually play Gronk straight up and make tackles the way you're suppose to make tackles.. they didn't resort to any cheap shot ******** by going low
2 pass catching TEs that suck at blocking, making their versatility limited and predictable.
Jamie Collins will smother Vernon Davis, I'm not worried about this at all. Davis gets traded and people are suddenly acting like the guy is a world beater TE.. hes been pretty average for awhile now

These are honest questions for people with your viewpoint.
Does Ware disappear/slow down every season after mid November?
How about Von Miller?
What about Talib staying healthy?
Did the Broncos NOT whine about having to possibly play in NE last year?
Finally, what major addition to the Denver defense do they have that they didn't last season?
The Patriots lost to them right?
How quick people forget history. It's actually a bit troubling.
Well that is true. They are beatable there, no question. What helps is the weather. Jan Denver weather helps us tremendous. I think most of that is PM just wearing down at the end of a long year - plus the weather. Plus the best teams are in the tourney.I don't know they've lost to Baltimore and Indy in the playoffs 2 out of the last 3 years. If NE would have lost at home 2 out of the last 3 years we'd hear about it. Like we still hear about how NE lost at home 3 out of 4 years from '09-'12
I could argue the reverse of this is true.
I don't expect Vernon Davis to be the best TE in the game suddenly, but he's better than what they had, Denver got him for virtually nothing, so he makes them a better team.
I don't understand why people would **** on this trade.
it's not what the Broncos added, it's what the Pats lost and that's a lockdown secondary.
Last season means very little this season.
Miller and Ware are still dangerous, not sure how them slowing them is a common occurrence. People say the same thing about Chandler Jones, doesn't mean he can't pressure the QB.
As far as Talib goes, his past injury history has little barring on this season. And also with Denver complaining, if they beat the Pats, they don't have to worry about coming to Foxboro, so there's that, for whatever that's worth.
In terms of additions, it's not what the Broncos added, it's what the Pats lost and that's a lockdown secondary.

A little off topic, but isn't james devlin due to come back soon?
Denver right now's a team that can keep us from getting to the superbowl. You can't deny that. Tommy's gonna have to do what he always does, put his team on his back.
Well he seems to always come though. But its not like he dosent have a very deep and proven set of weapons. Plus a D that is clearly tracking better than last year.
You act as if TB is surrounded by ****.
Nice move for the Broncos, their TEs have been absolutely awful and the cost was minimal.
I'm skeptical that he's any good, since he hasn't been relevant in a year and a half, but as recently as 2013 he was one of the best in the league. I really think that hit he took from Kam Chancellor was career-altering, though. I've seen a lot of 49ers games over the past couple years, and he still gets targeted a lot. He just doesn't really go up for contested balls anymore, and his hands aren't great. Kinda reminds me of late-career Welker in that sense.
There's also a lot of rumors out there re: how he's kinda mentally checked out on the game, and doesn't seem to be giving it his all. Pretty much just collecting paychecks at this point. If this trade flips that switch and he gets back to caring about football, we might see someone a lot more like 2013 than 2014 Davis. If so, this could be a great pickup.
If they can get even a couple good months out of him, it's still worth it. In his diminished state he's still an upgrade over Owen Daniels and Virgil Green. Even if his hands are questionable and he's not much of a blocker (he never was), he's still a really good athlete who can get open against most LBs.
